Stopped reading at "they want goals and they want to win games 5-4, or 4-3". What utter bollocks.

Tbf everyone wants goals and to win games 4-3. It's when the "rather lose 4-3 than win 1-0" comes into it that I get annoyed

We probably did expect 5th when he was here. Mainly because the 3 years before it we'd finished 4th, 3rd and 5th before him and his mate ruined it all.

The TV companies announce their picks for October-November tomorrow morning. Can't see many of ours being picked apart from Man Utd (a).

 

Think there will be at least one other. Aren't many high profile games most of the weeks, especially Southampton and Burnley away.

 

Will probably get picked at least four times in December alone.

Still no word on a sleeve sponsor. A few teams have just announced this week, but we're cutting it fine as usual.

 

You'd think it would earn us around £2-3m a year, considering Liverpool got £5m and Man Utd £12m.

 

Apparently we could be part of a group who are negotiating to share a sponsor through SGI, from what I've found with a quick search.

 

There's no confirmation from Bournemouth, Brighton, Burnley, Everton, Tottenham or West Ham yet either, while Southampton and Arsenal are forbidden from finding new sponsors due to their existing deals with Virgin Media and Emirates.

Brighton now Southampton on a Sunday 4pm. Disgraceful really.

That callous and cynical scheduling means that none of United's first seven away games of the season will take place in the traditional 3pm Saturday slot - and just one of them will be on a Saturday at all!

 

Sun 20.08.2017 Huddersfield (a) 1.30pm Sky

Sun 10.09.2017 Swansea City (a) 4pm Sky

Sun 24.09.2017 Brighton (a) 4pm Sky

Sun 15.10.2017 Southampton (a) 4pm Sky

Mon 30.10.2017 Burnley (a) 8pm Sky

Sat 18.11.2017 Man United (a) 5.30pm BT

Tue 28.11.2017 West Brom (a) 7.45pm no TV

 

So the Premier League's new "fan friendly" stance amounts to giving more notice of match alterations - but moving yet more of the damn things - presumably in an attempt to deter away fans from attending.

 

December live selections are due to be announced on October 12th and with United facing trips to Chelsea, Arsenal and West Ham that month, it's a fair bet that we'll suffer further disruption.
